Nomenclature
Is there as a glossary of terms, and possibly a workflow mindmap available somewhere? I’m trying to get my bearings and having trouble with the obvious like: “Composition.” I have created a selection with roto brush and cannot figure out how I can apply effects to just the subject area. Please advise.

This page was created for the purpose of giving an overview and an introduction to the basic terms:
“General workflow in After Effects”
The page introduces the basic terms and then links to pages that give incresingly deep detail.I created this page to walk someone step by step through learning After Effects:
https://blogs.adobe.com/toddkopriva/2010/01/getting-started-with-after-eff.htmlRegarding your Roto Brush question:
Watch this video tutorial and then work your way through the other resources linked to from here.Roto Brush is not a beginner’s tool. It is an advanced and involved feature. I very strongly recommend against beginning your experience with After Effects with it. It was created to help people who already know how to do basic compositing work in After Effects.
